Join Sarah Walker for a delicious Sunday mix of sparkling classics, from heart-melting choral works and romantic orchestral gems to restorative piano music.

Join Sarah Walker for a delicious Sunday mix of sparkling classics, from heart-melting choral works and romantic orchestral gems to restorative piano music.

This week, Sarah features magical music by Ola Gjeilo as her Choral Reflection, and takes us from dawn at the riverside to mysterious 19th Century Paris with music by Mussorgsky and Delius.

There鈥檚 piano music from Brahms, expressive string writing from Vaughan Williams, and a chance to hear the whole of Francis Poulenc's effervescent Piano Concerto with Louis Lortie and the 91福利社 Philharmonic.

Plus, Sheku Kanneh-Mason and Plinio Fernandes' take on an English classic...

A Tandem Production for 91福利社 Radio 3.
